2. MISSIONS

 LIBERTY

Tip: Be neutral/friendly with Junkers.
Tip: Willard Research Station give the best shields around.

 Sell all nanobots and shield battery - don`t worry,the first mission is easy-
and buy two Lavablade MkII ,because game scripts seems to like this and you’ll
get more loot from destroyed ships. Don’t bother to think,is all about
bringing down Order and Liberty Rogues ships. Also in the first part of the
mission one try to destroy 3 more Rogues before going to Pittsburgh and get
extra credits. After that you face a big  problem,everything is expensive!.
Try to buy a Bloodhound light fighter from Junkers or a Defender heavy
fighter from battleships and choose careful the weapons configuration
acording to enemy shields. Barrager MkI-II cannons from Junkers and Ad.
Stunpulse from Detroit are best suited against positron shields,like those
used by Outcast in third mission.Fight Xenos around Detroit(Molecular
shield!), they are excellent dogfighting partners,beam some Scorpion cannons,
fill nanobots/battery shield in your cargo and go for the second mission.
After successful completion loot all the  wrecks around Liberty,install
Pyros 1 turret,continue fighting Xenos around Ouray base until they slip Ad.
Scorpion and reach a neutral status with Rogues.Simply fly to Ouray Base and
at a certain distance (7-9 km) the protection fighters will show up. Engage
the battle with a fully maximized ship and avoid close contact with weapons
platform. You could use Defender,but I suggest Mule freighter from Alcatraz or
Dagger light fighter from Buffalo Base. Mule is somewhat slower than Defender,
but the shield from Willard Station and a mix of right weapons make all the
difference in harsh battles. Dagger is even better than Mule, but you`ll
need at least neutral relations with Rogue and Outcast.If you feel confident
go to Texas,fight Outcasts around jump gate and get some Pyros 1 cannons.
Then buy a friendly status with Junkers,who`s going to make you neutral with
Rogues and Outcast.Take third mission and head to Alcatraz to buy Cardamine.
Sell it on Manhattan, reach level six,go back to Junkers and buy 2 Barrager
Mk2 cannon and 1 turret. This weapon presume friendly relationships,obtained
by blasting Xenos or bribing the bartender. Now the configuration should be*:
A. DAGGER: Scorpion / Ad.Scorpion,1 Dragoon Type 1**, 1 Pyros 1 turret ;
B. MULE :Scorpion/Ad.Scorpion,2 Barrager MkII and turrets 2 Barrager MkI,1
Barrager MkII,1 Pyros; C.DEFENDER: Scorpion/Ad.Scorpion,3 Barrager MkII,1
turret Barrager MkII,Imp.Countermeasures,nano and shield battery. Don`t
forget powerful missile and mines.Join Juni and fight through most difficult
dogfighting in Liberty.

* A is the best option , B good enough , C hard time
** Sometimes Outcast ships from third missions let it slip
